AI scribe for chiropractors

Facts checked on 15 October 2026.

MentalNote is an AI scribe for chiropractors in solo and small practices: record the visit in your browser, choose the Medical SOAP format, and get a structured draft that is instructed to keep your findings as stated and to add no diagnosis you did not give, on a free plan or Premium at $99 a month.

Most chiropractic practices are small, and the doctor writes the notes. MentalNote turns a recorded visit into a structured draft for you to review, at a published price, with no sales call. It uses one general Medical SOAP format, not a chiropractic-specific template.

The short answer

Record the visit in your browser, in the room or on a telehealth call in a browser tab, and get a draft when the visit ends.
Choose the Medical SOAP format. Its sections are Chief Complaint, History of Present Illness, Review of Systems, Objective (vitals, exam and results), Assessment and Plan.
It is told not to fill gaps. The app instructs the AI to write "Not documented." for anything the visit did not cover, and not to add a normal finding, a number, a diagnosis or a code you did not state. Check every draft.
Start free: 5 scribe sessions a month, no time limit, no credit card. Premium is $99 a month or $990 a year.
MentalNote is HIPAA-compliant, with a BAA included on every plan.

Who it is for

Solo clinicians and small practices that want to sign up today, pay a published price and start without a sales call or an IT project. Premium is for solo clinicians. Practices can apply for the Practice Pilot.

What it does for a chiropractic visit

The app instructs the AI to keep range of motion, segmental findings and orthopedic and neuro tests as you stated them, including before and after treatment.
The draft refers to "the patient".
The app instructs the AI to name a diagnosis in the Assessment only if you stated one, and otherwise to describe the problem.
There is no separate treatment section. The adjustment and soft tissue work you describe are placed within the six Medical SOAP sections, so check where they land.

What the Medical SOAP note looks like

A human-written, shortened illustration based on a fictional test visit (no real patient). It is not verbatim app output, and your drafts will vary with what is said in the visit.

Fictional example: A neck pain visit

Chief Complaint

Neck pain and stiffness for 3 weeks.

History of Present Illness

Desk worker, no trauma. Pain worse turning head left. Occasional headache at the base of the skull. No arm numbness or weakness.

Review of Systems

Neurological: no arm numbness or weakness.

Objective

Vitals: pain 5/10 before treatment, 3/10 after treatment.

Exam: cervical rotation left 50 degrees, right 70 degrees. Tenderness and hypertonicity left upper trapezius and suboccipitals. Segmental restriction C5-C6 left. Upper limb neuro screen normal. Spurling negative. After treatment: rotation left 62 degrees.

Results: Not documented.

Assessment

1. Neck pain and stiffness with restricted left rotation. No diagnosis stated.

Plan

1. Today: diversified adjustment C5-C6, soft tissue work upper trapezius, ergonomic advice for monitor height.

2. 2 visits a week for 2 weeks, then reassess. Home chin tucks and stretches.

The doctor did not state a diagnosis in this visit, so the Assessment does not name one.

What it will not do

These are instructions the app gives the AI for every Medical SOAP note. They are meant to reduce errors, but they are not a guarantee. Review every line.

What can go wrong	What MentalNote instructs the AI to do
A normal exam you never did ("lungs clear")	Never record a normal or negative finding that was not stated, and never write "review of systems otherwise negative" unless you said so.
A vital sign, dose or result that was never said	Use only what the visit contains, and record vitals, scores and doses exactly as stated.
A number the AI worked out	Never calculate, round or convert a number, such as a BMI from height and weight.
A diagnosis or code the AI guessed	Give no diagnosis, diagnostic code or billing code (such as ICD-10 or CPT) unless you stated it in the visit.
A gap filled with typical content	Write "Not documented." for anything the visit did not cover.

Also good to know:

You review every draft. MentalNote writes a draft. You check it, edit it and decide what goes in the record.
One medical format. Medical SOAP is a general format for medical visits. There are no specialty-specific medical templates.
Web app only for medical notes. Medical SOAP is in the web app at app.mentalnote.ai. The optional Word add-in is built for therapy notes.
No direct EHR write-back. Copy or export the reviewed note into your EHR.

How it works

Confirm you have your patient's consent. The web app asks you to confirm it before every recording.
Record in the browser, in the room or on a telehealth call in another tab.
When the visit ends, choose Medical SOAP as the note format and get the draft.
Review and edit every line, then copy or export it into your EHR.

What it costs

Plan	Price	What you get
Free	$0, no time limit	5 web-app scribe sessions a month. No credit card.
Premium	$99 a month, or $990 a year ($82.50 a month)	Unlimited note generation, browser app and Word add-in.

No sales call needed: sign up and choose a plan yourself. MentalNote is HIPAA-compliant, with a BAA included on every plan. You accept the BAA in the app before your first session.
